Watched Shirobako a while back and still haven't gotten off my mind on how enjoyable the show was , this show seems the most recommended, However the score is quite average. I know scores aren't all to go by but this is 25 episodes. and the scores for most PA works shows are usually consistent except Lull in the sea (don't know why that is so high)

It's not as good, but it's still a good show. I personally really enjoyed it.

I enjoyed this more than shirobako.

Shirobako is much more stressful with its focus on deadlines and its settings are pretty much constrained within offices. As the nature of manga/anime making, plot devices tend to get repetitive.

Sakura quest is much more laid-back and focus more on character progression and their struggles. It has a whole town to work with so you get to see something new every episode. Seeing how the town slowly getting livelier and folks getting happier gives a very heart warming feeling.

It’s a much slower paced anime for sure so it might not be for everyone.
Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative.

Shirobako is an anime and I would say it shows the behind the scenes of anime production studios. Sakura Quest, I'd say it's themed around a girl who left the big city, went to an inner city to "popularize" that place. In my opinion. Hope this helps

I personally know if an Anime is good on how memorable it was and how much I think about it months/years after I watched it. This wasn't it, it barely made an impact and I don't remember much of it. Shirobako on the other hand, i enjoyed it very much, and even watched it again later on before the movie was announced (which is rare for me)

They’re both good for very different reasons. While Shirobako feels kind of hectic all the time, Sakura Quest is not like that. However in both you find a group of people working very hard whether for an anime studio or for a town’s tourism board. I think I enjoyed Shirobako more, but Sakura Quest is pretty good too.
